When Importing/Exporting to/from your Blackberry device, you need to 
make sure that the Blackberry is configured the same way as ThunderNote 
with regard to file format. The following steps should ensure 
compatibility:<BR>
<BR>
1. Select ASCII Importer/Exporter for MemoPad in the Blackberry Desktop Manager.<BR>
<IMG style="WIDTH: 621px; HEIGHT: 447px" alt="select mode" src="BB_selMode.PNG"><BR>
<BR>
2. Select the direction that you would like the data to travel. The 
will depend on whether you hit the "Import" or the "Export" button.<BR>
<IMG style="WIDTH: 621px; HEIGHT: 447px" alt="sync type" src="BB_selSyncType.PNG"><BR>
<BR>
3. Ensure the CSV options are set appropriately by clicking the "Options" button on the screen shown below.<BR>
<IMG style="WIDTH: 621px; HEIGHT: 447px" alt=options src="BB_selOptions.PNG"><BR>
<BR>
4. Ensure that the CSV file is comma delimited and uses double quotation marks to begin and end fields values.<BR>
<IMG style="WIDTH: 347px; HEIGHT: 229px" alt="csv opts" src="BB_csvOptions.PNG"><BR>
<BR>
With the Blackberry settings outlined above, selecting the "Blackberry 
Compatability Mode" check box on the ThunderNote Synchronization Screen 
will result in a file that can be used by both the Blackberry and 
ThunderNote.<BR></P>

When 
Importing/Exporting to/from your Microsoft Outlook mail client, you need to make 
sure that&nbsp;Outlook is configured the same way as ThunderNote with 
regard to file format. The following steps should ensure compatibility:<BR>
<BR>
1. Select the appropriate mode in the Import/Export Wizard.<BR>
<IMG style="WIDTH: 441px; HEIGHT: 330px" alt="sel mode" src="OL_selMode.png"><BR>
<BR>
2.
Select "Comma Separated Values (DOS)" as the file type.<BR>

<BR>
5. Confirm the operation. No field mapping is required.<BR>

As mentioned above, ThunderNote can also import CSV and XML files from

Note that values are "escaped" within each node and that there can be 
as many &lt;ThunderNote&gt; elements as required. The schema is not 
strictly enforced in that extra elements can exist within the 
&lt;ThunderNote&gt; node and the import would still work. This means 
that existing ThunderNote storage files can be imported regardless of 
the fact that they contain additional information about each note such 
as its category.</SPAN></SMALL></BIG></BIG></P><BIG><BIG><SMALL><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Consolas; COLOR: rgb(51,0,153); FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><HR style="WIDTH: 100%; HEIGHT: 2px">

<FONT size=4>Both ThunderNote and Helipad store the creation and update time of notes. This is used, in conjunction, with the last syncronization time, to determine if a note at one location or the other is out of sync. ThunderNote stores timestamps as a count of milliseconds since January 1st, 1970. Helipad represents timestamps as strings. This presents some challenges when trying to determine which is newer. The current solution to this is to allow for the configuration of the difference between the user's timezone and that of Helipad. This is configured in an .XML file called ThunderNoteSyncDB.xml which is found in user's Profile folder.
